Similar Techniques

Healing (回復,Kaifuku) refers to a variety of special techniques used throughout the Dragon Ball series. Presumably mystical in nature, it allows the user to heal another being's wounds and restore them to somewhat full strength. In general, it appears to have the same effectiveness and limitations as the more commonly-seen Senzu Beans. The only limitations to this is that it takes time for the user to heal, as they need to be at close range, while the Senzu Beans are able to be eaten anytime if available.

Dende uses this ability several times during the Frieza Saga. Most notably, he uses it to heal Vegeta after Krillin nearly kills the Saiyan prince; this was part of a desperate plan by Vegeta in order to get a Zenkai boost to get enough power to destroy Frieza. Unfortunately, Frieza notices Dende's ability and decides to kill him.

Dende heals Vegeta

After being revived by the Dragon Balls, and later being named Guardian of Earth during the Cell Games Saga, Dende uses this ability sporadically throughout the rest of Dragon Ball Z and Dragon Ball GT. Dende has moral issues when using his healing abilities on people that have evil hearts, and he only heals the evil if their intentions are good. It seems that Dende's healing extends to more than just the victim's wounds; when he uses it to heal Goku after his fight with Majin Vegeta and Gohan while fighting Super Buu, it completely restored their tattered clothing (although, when Dende healed Piccolo after being "killed" by Frieza, Piccolo's clothes are not restored).

In the movie Battle of Gods, when Dende was healing Videl's leg, it is revealed that Dende's healing powers can also determine the life-signs of an individual he is healing as he noticed that Videl was pregnant.

Piccolo

Piccolo possess a special self-healing technique called Wound Healing,[2] only displayed in the Garlic Jr. Saga. Piccolo touches a wounded part of his body and it quickly heals.

Future Zamasu, due to still being a Supreme Kai disciple thanks to having never officially become a Supreme Kai, was capable of utilizing healing abilities, which he did to Goku Black in order to allow him to become stronger.

In the manga, due to being a disciple of Future Shin and going through a day long ritual, Future Trunks actually possessed these healing powers too, however he did not know of this fact until Shin and Gowasu revealed it to him in the final battle with Fused Zamasu, after he informed them that he had previously officially become a disciple of Future Shin.

Supreme Kai of Time

Chronoa healing Xeno Trunks in the secret ending of Xenoverse

In Dragon Ball Xenoverse, the Supreme Kai of Time Chronoa demonstrates her healing ability when she heals Xeno Trunks' injuries he previously received while being forced to fight the Future Warrior by Demigra while his body was under the influence of the Demon God's Dark Magic. However when the Warrior returns with Tokitoki she comical forgets about Xeno Trunks to the point of literally jumping over him to greet them, though she had managed to heal most of his wounds by that point.

As the Xenoverse series occurs outside the manga and anime, it is unclear if the Supreme Kai of Time possesses healing like Supreme Kais do in the anime or if it is a trait unique to her position. It should be noted that Xenoverse was made before the manga revealed that only apprentice Supreme Kais have healing powers which are lost if they become a Supreme Kai. However it should be noted the series tends to follow the anime storyline more closely than it does the manga. Though Chronoa was originally a Kai and it is unclear if she was ever an apprentice Supreme Kai as she gained her position due to raising Tokitoki into an adult, thus she may have already possessed healing abilities which she retained as a Supreme Kai provided they were not tied to her previous position.

Majin Buu

Majin Buu healing Babidi

Majin Buu has the ability to heal organic beings through his Mend Beam, alternatively known as Recovery Beam; a variation of the Chocolate Beam. He uses this ability several times throughout the Majin Buu Saga to heal Babidi (who had earlier been bisected by Piccolo), cure a boy named Tommy of his blindness, heal a dog he later named Bee, and bring Mr. Satan back from the brink of death. Apparently, it also restores the person's clothes if the injury in question also shredded the person's clothing, as Babidi also regained the torn parts of his outfit when Buu healed him of his bisection by the hands of Piccolo.

Giru

Super Saiyan God energy

As seen in Dragon Ball Super, the energy of the Super Saiyan God form is capable of healing the user's minor injuries, like battle bruises, or even lethal injuries, like being impaled through the chest. Later, during the Tournament of Power, Goku's Super Saiyan Blue form allowed him to use his healing powers on Master Roshi, reviving him a near-death state.

In Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 2, most maps in the Dragon World mode contain at least one Healing Spot. This is a space on the board colored blue with Dende standing beside it. For each turn a character spends on it, they gain an additional life.

Many support characters in Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Z have the ability to heal allies with specialized techniques, Jeice can use his Fighting Pose in order to create a healing sphere for his allies for example. Other healers in the game include Gohan, Krillin, Yamcha, Future Trunks, Android 18, Trunks, and Goten. Some characters can revive downed allies simply by hitting them. Teen Gohan's A Disturbance in Ki! is an example of this.

Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2

Like in Xenoverse, Namekian Future Warrior (Xenoverse 2) can heal their allies using Emperor's Sign. Towa and the Future Warrior can also use the Energy Zone Super Skill to heal themselves and their allies. Energy Zone will also heal Parallel Quest NPC ally supports which can be useful in keeping these allies alive especially in missions that require said allies to survive or be at a certain level of health to trigger an Ultimate Finish.

As part of the Extra Pack 1 DLC, Tapion's Super Soul Earth is in your hands now! activates a Health Auto-Recovery effect for the user and their allies when they use the Hero's Flute Super Skill, effectively adding a healing effect to Hero's Flute when the Super Soul is equipped, though since Tapion has the Super Soul equipped to his skillset he has this effect by default. Additionally the Super Soul also provides a small reduction in the amount of damage taken by allies as well, which in turn makes the healing more effective as they take less damage while being healed. Other Super Souls also possess the ability to grant Health Auto-Recovery to both the user or their allies as long as they are not KO'd or their survival is required to succeed in certain quests, as the effect will not be applied to them. However most require certain conditions be met for the effect to be triggered.
